What models would you like to see made in the future ???

[Grossman56]

Hey Beeg,
I think that's a great idea! Besides we haven't had a new biplane in some time, and I don't think we've ever had a fighter from that era, I may be wrong on that but it doesn't take away the fact that this plane would fit into the 'seldom modeled' category that Flightline is looking for.

LOL......was timing you on how long you were gonna take to cut-n-paste from RCG over to here and as such I repeat what I said over there........
That is some of the best rationale I've seen posted in some time !! ;)

LOL! Yep! Had to find the right forum over here.
Seems we always have plenty of WWII era, but rightly so as they are so popular. I'm a big fan of pre-war and Korean war stuff too. The pre-war planes all had such colorful paint jobs. I've been thinking of back dating the big FMS P-40B into a P-36. The P-36 is so well proportioned and has such classic lines. For it's day it was a top of the line fighter.

That would be great to see! Would also love to see a Fliteline 1600mm PBY with scale gear and retracting tip floats. I primarily fly off a geotex runway, so the Dynam isn't really an option for me with no gear. A Grumman Goose would also be acceptable.

Still hoping that we get a Freewing F-106. With 90 degree gear retraction, simple ducting, and maybe some working rear speed brakes, it really makes a lot of sense to be built, and has never been modeled in foam.

I'm thinking a F4F Wildcat with full articulating landing gear to finish out the propeller "Cats". With the cool landing gear they could back right into an F3F for an awesome bi-plane which have been lacking.

Then an F-11 or even a Super Tiger to complete the Grumman line.

I'd like to see an afordable 6-10 lbs A-10.

[redtwilight]

It's a long list of planes I'd like to see made but here's a few of my most wanted. All I'd like to see using a 4s - 6s power system.

-Grumman G-164 B AgCat. Either or both the radial version or turbo-prop version. Add the extended wing with the Hershey tips.
-Fokker D-VI
-Fokker D-VII
-Sopwith Camel
-Airtractor AT-502
-Callair A-9
-Polikarpov I-16 Rata
-Dehaviland DH-89 Dragon Rapide

Can't have too many crop dusters or bipes!

I'm new to RC airplanes and this forum, but here are my votes if I get to do that. Presumably we are talking larger scale foamy electrics in PNP or more complete form. Yes, I will buy at least one of each category below as soon as they are available! I should no longer be a threat to myself and other pilots by then. ;)

Predator (I will call mine the Fredator! :D)

Cessna Skymaster / O-2 ( I love puller/pusher twins!)
Dornier Pfeil (Two functioning props, please!)

B-29 (two free-wheeling props okay if it doesn't affect scale much)
B-36 (two or four free-wheeling props okay if it doesn't affect scale much)
C-130 (two free-wheeling props okay if it doesn't affect scale much, USAF colors)

F-4 (USAF colors)

B-52
757 (Configured and painted as TRUMP ONE! :p)

Albatros D (In Jasta 11 colors of course!)
DR1 (In Red Baron colors of course!)

[Grossman56]

An Amelia Earhart plane!

Interesting idea, A Roscoe Turner Lockheed Vega, a Huges H-1 all planes from the golden age of aviation. An STA would be nice as well and the famed Curtis Jenny.

Welcome, Octagon! The Lockheed Model 10 would be excellent in foam electric, I'd agree. Dynam's BF-110 uses a similar tail arrangement, and it wouldn't take much to adapt that aircraft's inner workings into a Lockheed Model 10 shell.

[octagon]

New to the forum, but two planes that nobody seems to produce are the Supermarine S6B, or the Lockeed 10 Like Amelia Earharts. Would love to see either of those.

Hi Black Drape, I'm sorry to hear about your ASM! I've flown one in years past, I'm curious where the failure was? The area where the elevator meets the boom, or the inner wing saddle, perhaps? I had to reinforce mine at those areas because they seemed on the weaker side.

[Black Drape]

Guys, I NEED another P61 Black Widow. My ASM P61 disintegrated in the air. VQ has told me that they are not going to re release theirs again. Sure would like to see somebody come out with one.

[Alpha]

B-29 would be nice. I would love to see more bombers in general.

I watched the Snowbirds perform at Oshkosh this year and I agree the aircraft would make a nice model in RC if made in the right size. I'm slightly concerned about the ducting and low clearance, though. The wheels would be tiny, and I'm always asked about a model's grass performance. Either a hand launcher like the Freewing 64mm Panther, or a bigger 90mm EDF so that the wheels were at least 1.75". ... but I'm unsure of the appeal at that size and price?

[Whtjames]

I'm amazed there hasn't been a CT-114 Tutor in Snowbird colours yet! Yeah, I m a biased Canadian but geez, there's even an MB339 of Freece Tricolori out there. Not to mention the numerous Blue Angel, Breitling and Thunderbird models. There was a Tutor produced at one time from a Chinese manufacturer but no supplier carrying it. (Haoye)
The Tutor would likely have easy flight characteristics due to the straight wing. Would have good crash resistance due to high tail and blunt nose.
I would buy 9 of them if I could find it!! Eh!
I am,regardless, a dedicated Motion RC client.

I'd like to see more WW1 aircraft, like the Junkers CL1

[dradams2]

I would like to see a multi-engine B-47 Stratojet. This plane seems to be overlooked for the newer, more familiar B-52 Stratofortress.

From Boeing's website: "The Boeing B-47 was the country's first swept-wing multiengine bomber. It represented a milestone in aviation history and a revolution in aircraft design. Every large jet aircraft today is a descendant of the B-47."

[heliguy]

How about a B 29 comparable to the Freewing B 17- seems no one has even produced an RC B 29.

[Wacopilot]

I would like to see a Waco UPF-7

[jetdoc]

As in another topic, Grumman HU-16A Albatross!!!!!
